Tuesday night was quite busy for me, whew! I made my usual stop at the monthlySeattle Greendrinks. If you have a Greendrinks in your city, you should go...if not, you should start one. As usual, lots of good people and discussions.
Next, it was off to a screening of The Real Dirt on Farmer John hosted by none other than Seattle's own The Warren Report. Being a hippie-greener type small town farm boy from Nebraska myself, this movie touched about every emotion in my body. The story of a farm boy growing up in Illinois, with classic themes of the looming loss of a farm, family members passing, neighbors turning against one another, etc. But in Farmer John, you get a few, shall I say, "fabulous", twists and turns along the way. The story itself is wonderful, the film beautiful, but the fact that it is a great explanation of the importance of community supported agriculture (CSA) makes it by far one of my favorite movies of all time. It's one that I will see over and over again and encourage everyone I know to see as well.
